FAQ

What is the normal/healthy weight range for 203 cm male?

The normal/healthy weight range for 203 cm male is 76.3 kg - 103 kg.

How is the ideal weight of 95.8 kg for 203 cm calculated?

By the Devine formula (1974): it starts from 50 kg for a man and adds 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 203 cm ≈ 79.92 inches, 19.92 of them above the 60-inch mark: 50 + 2.3 × 19.92 ≈ 95.8 kg. Below 5 feet (152.4 cm) this calculator sets the surcharge to zero and keeps the base weight.

Why do the ideal weight and the healthy range give different answers?

They are two different models. The range 76.3 kg - 103 kg is the band 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25 applied to 203 cm, while the ideal weight 95.8 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 23.25. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
